Hello loves!
So I am taking part in the Trope-ical Readathon in March and I am really excited to do so. Plus, I have the extra joy of hosting some sprints over on the Trope-ical sprints twitter, which is here, just in case you aren’t following it already and I am also going to be helping a fellow host over on their YouTube so keep an eye out for that too!
Anyways, I am just going to go through the prompts for my team, which is Team Sci-Fi/Fantasy of course, and then the general prompts and I will list the book that I will try and read to fulfil them.
Hope you enjoy!
